Hey 7Sagers,

Here's the official October 2022 LSAT Discussion Thread.

REMINDER: Under your Candidate Agreement, you may not discuss the details of any specific LSAT questions at any time. For the October LSAT, general discussion of what sections you had, or how difficult you found a given section, or speculation about which sections were scored or unscored, is prohibited until after 9pm ET, Tuesday, October 18th.

Posts that violate these rules will be taken down and may result in disciplinary action from LSAC. Let’s work together to ensure the test is fair to everyone, and not share information before everyone has taken the test.

Some examples of typical comments:

The following comments are okay 🙆‍♀️

  • the section on Cambodian woodworking really had me second guessing everything.
  • a few of the games had me confused but think I was okay.
  • overall fair test, struggled on a couple of RC passages (damn you polymorphic molecules) but think I was okay hoping for a -2 or -3
  • The following comments are over the line 🙅‍♂️

  • the passage on Cambodian woodworking didn’t count.
  • I had Cambodian woodworking, Fireflies, and rice farming in Iowa so Lithuanian Lithograph Libraries was experimental.
  • fair test but struggled on a couple RC passages (polymorphic molecules anyone? Thankfully it didn’t count). Don’t want to take again in June
  • Anyone know if Polygamist Societies in the 1880s was real or experimental?
  • Please tell me that polygon dice game didn’t count
  • Good luck to everyone taking the October LSAT!

    **Please keep all discussions of the October 2022 LSAT here!**(/red)

      Friday test, had LR-LG-LG-RC. The LR included a question about why the ancestors of whales developed the ability to echolocate. First LG had a game with a cortet for a band with people playing cello and violin, and a game that involved people spread August-October. Second LG had a game involving the different floors of buildings and how they could be allocated relative to each other, as well as a game with different types of alcoholic bevs. RC was following order: a funny grasshopper reading, comparative about international law, history/comp. of US and Canadian banking systems, and the Chinese literati style of art.

      Damn, maybe I'm the only one that feels this was hard. LR reminded of 80's. Games didn't go as well and it was hard for me to eliminate answers on RC.

      I usually feel pretty good about LG but some questions were weird, I usually score -0 but this definitely was not the case. RC passages all seemed extremely convoluted.

      ok it seems pretty clear that the Paris RC is the graded one - is anyone else legit panicking now omfg. I like had a full blown meltdown in the middle of the section and now Im like praying for anything over a 158. Honestly that section was bonkers I can't believe they put it FIRST - like we didn't even have time to like get into the groove of the test after the nightmare that was the proctor setup process. I feel like I completely bombed after PTing honestly really high for months. What a mess

      The RC section with the Louvre was ridiculous IMO.

      Had LR-RC-LR-LG

      LR was about what I expected, LG easy, RC was so hard.

      The passage about science as a history was uninterpretable.

      I had RC with stable banks, literati, and i forget the other two. Only one section, felt like a walk in the park

      @georgeeglass1551 I was hoping that the RC with the Louvre was the experimental section because I got two RC sections. I feel like I bombed that section!

      My proctor interrupted and stopped my test 7 times to reshare my screen/camera. She didn't always respond when I asked her to stop the time. What a frustrating experience! It really threw me.

      I wish everyone the best of luck!

      Do you have a guess on which LG is the experimental?

      I had only 1 LG and had the apartment game

      OMG Thank God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Hey,

      So I had two LG sections. The first section had a game about mixed use buildings (different floors had different uses such as residential, commercial etc)

      The second LG section had a game about artists having their art displayed in different galleries, during the months of September, October, and November...

      Can someone who only had one LG section confirm which is the real deal?

      I had 2 LR but I had this question!

      I had 2, and I just rly wanted this one to be the real one. The other one was pure evil.

      Waited an hour and 45 minutes to connect to a proctor and get the proctor chat system downloaded. I was already giving my test pretty late but all the problems led me to finish the test at 12 am local time for me. Honestly not a pleasant experience and nothing like what I experienced when I took it in January.

      Anyways, I had LR LG RC LR. LG felt straightforward, RC was super long and LR was the usual level with hella flaw/weaken/MoR questions. Anyone else have the same 4?

      Apart from that I hope you guys are taking the much needed time away from the LSAT and law school apps. I know last time around I agonized until the score came out but it’s good to remember what’s done is done and you can’t do anything to change it so stressing won’t help or change anything. And more than that, technically the minute you did the test, your score was in! All that takes these next 2 weeks is all the proctor checking etc. You did it!!! We did it :’)

      LR-LG-RC-LR

      First LR very hard. I had the same RC as @matthewdwolpe94 and the games were just time consuming. Praying that the 1st LR was experimental. I did have that echolocation question and 95% sure I got it wrong.

      Lost 3 minutes due to my proctor not stopping my exam when my connection was lost. As we re-connected and started to set up the exam again, my timer was still going on. He paused it right before he let me take the exam again. I lost about 3 minutes. Should I sent an official lsat complaint or non-official. This is BS.

      Might be a silly question but at the end of this, everyone has the same 3 sections that are scored right? Or do they switch it from one day to the next?

      Not everyone has the same scored sections.

      If I had to guess I would say the one with building floors was experimental, although that is complete 100% speculation. It seemed to me like the type of game a lot of people would have struggled with, but not a lot of ppl were mentioning that they struggled on their games section.

      Thanks, I hope you’re right. It was the one made me reflect on my whole life during the break to pick up myself for the other two sections left.
